We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real content. The posting includes: About Directive (company description) maybe "About the role"? Actually there is "Role Summary". Could treat as About the role. Then "Key Responsibilities". Then "Success Metrics (KPIs)" maybe could be part of Responsibilities or separate? Could be "Requirements" maybe not. There's "Who You Are" with Experience & Background and Core Competencies and Cultural Fit & Traits. That could be Requirements/Qualifications/Skills. Then "What We Offer" includes salary range (Pay) and benefits. Then "Work Environment Requirements" maybe schedule? Not exactly schedule. There's remote-first, work from home, etc. Could be "Schedule" maybe not. There's no explicit schedule. So we will include sections: About the role (using Role Summary), Responsibilities (Key Responsibilities), Requirements (Experience & Background, Core Competencies, Cultural Fit & Traits maybe combined), Benefits (What We Offer benefits), Pay (salary range), maybe Work Environment (but not required). The instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. So we can include Pay and Benefits. For Schedule, not present, so omit. For Skills maybe we can include under Requirements or separate. But we can combine. We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Account Director, Client Strategy". Not to repeat. We must not include Job ID etc. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO etc. At end there is EEO statement; remove. We must preserve all substantive information. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We'll produce something like:

We'll have sections:

Success Metrics (KPIs): Net Revenue Retention (NRR), Renewal Rate, Customer Satisfaction (CSAT).

Requirements

Experience & Background

    ... each bullet ...

  • for list. We'll put each bullet as
  • . For the Experience & Background we can have a

    heading? But we must use

    for section headings only. Inside we can use

    for prose and

    • for lists. So we can have a

      Experience & Background:

      then
        with items. Similarly for Core Competencies and Cultural Fit & Traits. We could combine all under Requirements with subheadings as

        bold? That's okay. Alternatively we could split into Qualifications, Skills sections but we don't have explicit headings. The instruction: use

        for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements, Qualifications, Skills as separate if content exists. We have experience & background (qualifications), core competencies (skills), cultural fit (maybe Qualifications). We could make three sections: Requirements (Experience & Background), Qualifications (Core Competencies), Skills (Cultural Fit & Traits). But better to keep few substantive sections. The instruction: Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. So maybe combine into one Requirements section with subpoints. We'll do:
